Scenario

When couples fight about money but it's really about fear

My husband and I keep having the same fight about money but it's never actually about money — it's about how we grew up differently and what safety means to each of us and neither of us knows how to bridge that gap. We love each other but we speak different languages when we're scared.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Beneath every practical disagreement lies the tender archaeology of how we learned to survive.
